Hmmmm?
Posting IMEI numbers?! Not really the greatest idea is it!
First 15 should work
That's the standard length for an IMEI number, if I remember correctly.
yea just ignore the last two digits.
didnt work for me as well..
there was a thread about it not long ago..

hi people,
recently I ve figure it that when I send sms, the person which get my sms dont recieve my GSM phone number as a sender number, the SMS show my home number as an origin of the sms.
Also in phone settings on the top of the screen is that phone number, the number of my home and not gsm number as it should be...
Probably I ve set it somewhere and sometime and I cant recall any more, digged thru the wallaby but couldnot find it, as far as I remember long time ago somewhere I clicked that number and mark it as "my number" but cant recall anymore was that on some other phone which probably put that in SIM or that was on the wallaby somwhere...
Please help, how can I change that number, its quite stupid to have that number as a senders number when no one can reply to it coz I have no SMS on the home phone and beside that I dont live with my familiy any more...
Just tested the sim in the other phone... Looks like its in the wallaby somewhere, when I send sms from my ancient nokia 5110 everything is fine :S
In the owner data of the wallaby is phone number from the place where I work, I really dont know the origin of that old home number reported in sms messages :S
Thanks ppl and BR !
I have searched for this and found the same question posted in a HD2 Android category, but there were no responses... so asking for myself in here.
I have all my phone numbers listed in my contacts with the preceeding area code, as I often travel outside of the local area and need those area codes included in my contacts numbers..... ie: all my phone numbers are 10 digits in length.
However, there doesn't seem to be a requirement for the area code to be sent, when a caller has Caller-ID enabled. In other words, I receive some calls from contacts in my phone, but if their phone doesn't include the area code in their Caller-ID, then my phone doesn't recognise or identify the number. Consequently, when hanging up from those calls, it constantly asks me if I want to save the number.
Note - it isn't a permanent thing. Many incoming calls DO identify correctly, as the area code has obviously been sent with C-ID.
Does anyone have a solution for this?
Obviously I COULD go thru every contact and manually add another non-area-coded phone number - perhaps under an obscure phonebook entry, like "pager"... but surely this is something that one would expect be handled automatically by the phone... not by duplicating entries as a work-around.
What would happen for business-people who travel internationally - most of their contacts would also include the "+61" (or whichever) country code also.....
Nobody ???
Bumping again ????
Anybody have any clues to this?
Did you try disabling the Area Code Prefix setting in Settings -> Call Settings ?

Thanx mate for your reply.
Sorry took so long.... my phone has been in for warranty repair (unrelated matter to this) for the last 7 weeks, so I haven't logged onto xda in that time !!!
No..... I haven't tried disabling the AC Prefix setting. I will have a look at that and see if it makes any difference.
One additional comment..... I am also having the REVERSE problem.... in that SOME people who ring me on their mobiles, the caller ID is also sending the +61 (Australia) country code in front of their mobile number too.... so again, my phone isn't recognising them as being the "same" number as what is stored in my phonebook ????
Will try the disable thing you mention and report if it works.
Sorry mate... cannot find the setting you mention.
Could you explain please exactly where it is ?

Or you could turn off having the phone ask to to add the number to your contacts.
On the US T-Mobile phone it is:
Activate phone screen
Menu
Options
Menu
Network Selection
Advanced tab
Turn off the feature to "Add new phone number to People at end of call"
I'm using the NRG ROM.
Thanks stevedebi.
Sorry - I mite not have been properly clear.
The issue isn't being asked to save a new number.
The issue is.... the phone does not recognise a number - mobile or landline - if there is an area-code or country-code prefixed to the number (or vice versa) with the entry in the phone book.
Eg: ALL my contacts saved in my phone have their mobile numbers WITHOUT the +61 country code.... and ALL landline numbers are saved WITH area-codes.
Now - depending on my contact's phone operators, they sometimes send with, or without, those prefixes in their caller ID's.
Consequently - on those occasions.... my phone does not recognise incoming calls or messages as having come from my contacts, due to the extra numbers at the beginning.
Surely this is a software issue from HTC? I mean, surely the software should be able to query an incoming called ID (either with or without prefixed-codes) with a saved number in the contacts/phonebook (with or without prefixed-codes)... ???
Bumping again ?
Sorry to be repetitive.... still looking for an answer to this ???
Check you registry setting for "HKCU\Control Panel\Phone\CalIidMatch" value=?!?
try to reduce the number for "Value" by 1 and try.
This is for the number of digits your phone will check when comparing incoming numbers with stored names.
Thanx Omar,
Will try that. Question though.... does it check the phone number (by number of digits) in reverse order? ie: setting a particular number will have no effect, if it checks in normal forward order, as it's PREFIXES that are making things wrong.... so the phone needs to ONLY check the LAST 10 digits.... not the first 10. This will eliminate the issue with any country-code added to the front of a number... but will not help with a local area code, as these are dependent on the callers' carrier, if they send the area code in the CID or not
From my experience with my HTC phones, it checks the last digits.
I have number saved with the +974 international code (for Qatar), & when local call come in, they only show the local format (without +974) & the caller ID still recognises the names. Our local numbers are 8 digits, so I have the registry value set at 7 or 8 & it works fine.
Greetings.
I've been using the SonyBread ROMS by paul-xxx in my X10 Mini Pro and they are great, but I am having an annoying problem with all versions:
when I receive a call from someone (who is already saved in my contacts list) the phone shows only the number, not the caller’s name.
This happens because here in Brazil I have to save the contact's number with the area code and the long distance operator number, but when someone calls the operator only informs the area code and the number.
Example:
Contact> John Doe
Number> 0-41-11-1234 5678
[meaning: 0-(long distance operator number)-(area code)-(John Doe's number)]
But when John calls the operator informs only 0-11-1234 5678 and then the phone doesn't associate this number with John's.
Before I started using custom ROMs this worked flawlessly. I could have whatever operator number stored in the contacts and the phone always could identify the caller.
I think it read the caller's number backwards and read only the first 10 digits...
Anyway, as this was working with the original firmware, maybe there is a way of extracting a file from the original ROM and overwriting it on the custom ROM.
Does anyone knows how to do this? Or even better, has someone any kind of solution for this bug?
Thanks in advance!
Try fixing the number to 0-41-11-1234 5678 instead of 0-11-1234 5678, just a try... My phone doesn't happens it...
replace in settings language

Hi, XxLordxX.
I went to Sao Paulo city this weekend and the phone did recognize some calling numbers.
The local numbers (Sao Paulo city's numbers) were working ok. The phone showed the number without any area code (1234-5678) and the caller's name appeared on the screen.
Now I've returned to my city (different area code) and the same caller from Sao Paulo was shown on the screen with the area code (011 1234-5678) and no name appeared.
In the example above the number stored in my phone was the complete version, with the operator number (0 41 11 1234-5678). So, the problem only happens when someone from another area code calls (80% of my calls).
And as I said before, this was working perfectly with the original firmware.
Very strange. Any ideas?

Hi paul-xxx.
Sorry, but I did not understand what you mean.
Anyway, I changed the language to English (United States) but the problem remains.
Any other idea?
Thanks.
PS: Your ROM is great, thank you very much for the work.
Guys, I have managed to solve this issue by removing the long distance operator code from all contacts and intalling a free app that inserts the programmed operator number at the moment of the call.
Now the phone is able to recognise all callers.
Thank you both for taking the time to help.
Cheers!
I've been searching all day for a good solution for this but can't seem to find anything that works for the S2.
I've seen some people have an issue in Android where the phone number will show up as Unknown in the My phone number field in the About phone status screen. I have a similar issue, but different. My phone number shows up 11 zero's instead of unknown.
As my previous phone was an Iphone my sim won't fit to try write my number to the sim. Is it the same issue as the unknown? and has anyone found a fix while using an S2? I've already updated the ME contact with my number and still no luck.
There seem to be a few apps that use this number to display information about you including Kies which return this 00000000000 number.
It doesn't stop the phone from being used, but it is started to be an annoyance that I guess I could do with out.
Any help you could give would be great.
Thanks,

My phone number is also Unknown. Maybe i'm not reading it right, but what's your problem?
Sorry I must have left out the most important part. How do i get my phone to show my correct number?
Thanks

I got that, but since I've got the unknown number maybe you can do something extra when you got number displaying there. So my question was needed to be like: where do you need it for?
But sorry I don't known how to get it there.

Mod Edit on your IMEI, never share that publicly...ESN information it can, unfortunately, promote fraud.

Only the carriers can track the IMEI. Im Sorry to say that it is most likely gone. You can try with googles track your device or web history but that is not a sure thing.
